Today, though, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/mercedes-benz\/\">Mercedes-Benz<\/a> takes the shooting break concept one step further with the addition of two rear doors and a healthy dose of next-generation style. It&#8217;s the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/19\/mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-revealed-ahead-of-beijing\/\">CLS Shooting Break Concept<\/a>, folks. Think of this as the four-door coupe for the wagon segment.<\/p>\n<p>The exterior design is awash with swoopy shapes that mimic both coupe and hatchback\/wagon elements. Full LED headlamps and sharp 20-inch wheels round off the whole outside package, and if we&#8217;re honest, we really like it.<\/p>\n<p>Under the hood lies a direct-injected 3.5-liter V6 capable of producing 306 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque (the exact same output as a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/cts\">Cadillac CTS<\/a>, for what it&#8217;s worth). Mercedes-Benz hasn&#8217;t released estimates, but the automaker says that the concept car &#8220;sets new standards among the competition in terms of fuel consumption.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Scroll through our gallery below to see live shots of the CLS Shooting Break Concept direct from the floor of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/category\/beijing-motor-show\/\">Beijing Motor Show<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/beijing-2010-mercedes-benz-shooting-brake-concept\/\">Beijing 2010: Mercedes-Benz Shooting Break concept<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/beijing-2010-mercedes-benz-shooting-brake-concept\/#2920875\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-shooting-brake-1280-01_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/beijing-2010-mercedes-benz-shooting-brake-concept\/#2920874\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-shooting-brake-1280-02_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/beijing-2010-mercedes-benz-shooting-brake-concept\/#2920873\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-shooting-brake-1280-03_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/beijing-2010-mercedes-benz-shooting-brake-concept\/#2920872\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-shooting-brake-1280-04_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/beijing-2010-mercedes-benz-shooting-brake-concept\/#2920871\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-shooting-brake-1280-05_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-concept\/low\/\">Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Break Concept<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-concept\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-cls-sblarge015_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-concept\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-cls-sblarge029_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-concept\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-cls-sblarge016_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-concept\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-cls-sblarge022_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-concept\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/04\/mb-cls-sblarge023_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n<em><strong> <small>Live photos by Sam Abuelsamid \/ Copyright (C)2010 Weblogs, Inc.<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/23\/beijing-2010-mercedes-benz-cls-shooting-break-concept-is-the-fo\/\">Beijing 2010: Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Break concept is the four-door coupe of wagons<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Fri, 23 Apr 2010 15:01:00 EST.
